LUDHIANA: Having lost both his beloved dogs from his farmhouse at Basant Avenue, Rajiv Gulati was in distress since Friday morning. But hope returned when he found one of the two pets, Marshal, a St Bernard. While Marshal was found just before being sold, seven-month-old German shepherd Maxy is still missing.

The Model Town resident, who is a builder and owns a chain of educational institutions, said the dogs went missing on Friday morning around 4am. “Whenever I come to the farmhouse, they rush towards the gate and greet me with wagging tails. My watchman informed me about their absence on Friday morning, and I, told the personnel at Basant Avenue police post.”

It was Rajiv’s milkman who helped him spot Marshal. “He said he had seen my dog at an enclave near Daad village. I took him along and we came to know that someone had shifted the dog to Phullanwal. We recovered Marshal from a person who was about to sell him. Ever since he has returned, Marshal has been sleeping after eating his food. I am worried about Maxy,” he said.

Rajiv said he is still not convinced if the man who had Marshal does not have Maxy too in his custody. “I think even Maxy is with him and we are keeping a watch to spot my dog,” said Rajiv. Davinder Singh, in charge of Basant Avenue police post said, “We were informed only over the phone and are yet to get a written compliant. However, we know that one dog has been found.”
